Fontana Arte — Alicanto
Alicanto takes its name from Chilean mythology. It’s about a nocturnal bird rumoured to live in the Atacama Desert and feed exclusively on gold and silver.
Fontana Arte Alicanto
Designed by the Italian artistic director of Fontana Arte, Francesco Librizzi, this arched lamp is poised like a bird, tilted with a forward imbalance to carry the light and to cast it as far as possible. The light flaunts technicality and its tiny metal feet give it the appearance of a bird with legs slightly apart. Alicanto comes in black/gold and white/gold colours while the diffuser is made from hand-blown etched glass.

The lamp’s linear LED has an integrated dimmer contained in the light tube. Tilting the ring pivots the light tube. Through the lamp’s combination of tension, friction and balance, the user can create many lighting scenarios and effects through this adjustable function.

Offered in three matte-finish hues: brick, black and white, its designer Ferruccio Laviani designed it through inspiration from him observing his mother Giacomina (who was fondly called Geen-a) who took to reading intently. He often spotted her cradling a book, flipping the paper and just admiring how those pages took her on fantastical journeys!
